About Us – Learning Differently

Who we are

At Learning Differently Limited, we are a passionate African-led social enterprise dedicated to unlocking the potential of every child who learns differently. Founded in 2021, we specialize in designing and delivering early, accessible, and affordable interventions for children with Specific Learning Disabilities (SLDs), ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), and global developmental delays.

Our mission is driven by deep compassion, expertise in inclusive education, and a firm belief that no child should be left behind because of how their brain works. We work with parents, teachers, caregivers, and schools to build a more inclusive learning environment across the continent.

Our Dream for Africa

We envision an Africa where neurodivergent children are seen, supported, and celebrated. An Africa where diagnosis doesn't mean exclusion but opens doors to the right help, hope, and a future full of possibility. Our dream is to mainstream inclusion across education systems and equip every African child with the tools they need to thrive regardless of how they learn.

Our solutions are homegrown, based on real African classrooms, languages, and cultures because meaningful inclusion starts with context.

Why We Exist

Because millions of children across Africa are falling behind—not for lack of intelligence, but for lack of understanding. Because mislabeling, shame, and silence still define the journey for too many neurodivergent learners.

We exist to bridge the gap—between need and support, between awareness and action, between diagnosis and dignity.

At Learning Differently, we don’t just intervene. We reimagine what learning can look like—for every child.
